I too have a classic M6HM which is apparently now worth several hundred dollars more than I paid for it last December--IF one is to believe some of the optimistic ads out there. Unless you buy explicitely with collecting in mind, you should not look at your Leicas as investments. The stock market is better for that. Of the dealers that post ads here on the LUG, only one has these inflated asking prices. I think that some people are trying to talk up the price before disposing of their inventory.
